US
President Donald Trump has canceled his trip to South America in
response to the alleged use of chemical weapons by the Syrian government
forces in the city of Douma in Eastern Ghouta. Moscow and Damascus, for
their part, are pressing for a fair investigation into the allegations,
maintaining that it was a false flag attack.

Last week, several media outlets reported, citing militants, that Damascus had dropped a chlorine bomb on Douma,
which allegedly claimed up to 70 lives. While the United States has
held the Syrian authorities accountable for the alleged attack, Bashar
al-Assad's government has vehemently dismissed the allegations,
insisting that the entire incident was staged.

According to the New York Times,
Donald Trump and his advisers have been discussing a military response
to the purported attack, with national security officials voicing their
concerns that launching an attack of the same scale as last year’s strike on Syria's Shayrat airbase in response to the alleged sarin gas attack in Idlib would prove ineffective at halting Damascus.

The
Trump Administration officials are reportedly weighing a more powerful
strike on Syria, expecting that use of force is the only credible
deterrent against further chemical attacks and suggesting hitting a few
targets as well as extending strikes beyond a single day.

At the same time, US authorities are not
disclosing the details of the potential military response, however,
Trump has recently spoken with several world leaders, including French
President Emmanuel Macron, Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, UK
Prime Minister Theresa May, and agreed not to allow chemical weapons
to be used in Syria. It remains unclear whether any of Trump’s allies
will take part in the strikes.

Earlier, the US Navy had announced its
decision to deploy the USS Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group to the
Middle East, along with the guided-missile cruiser USS Normandy and
destroyers USS Arleigh Burke, USS Bulkeley, USS Forrest Sherman and USS
Farragut. While the Navy has described the move as a “planned
redeployment,” it came shortly after Washington had accused Damascus
of using chemical weapons.

Possible Targets of US Strikes

According to the recent report by Turkish media outlet Yeni Safak,
citing International Relations scholar Zakariye Molahafci, the US has
designated 22 top targets on Syria’s territory. The targets are
reportedly located in the province of Homs, as well as near Russian
naval facility in Tartus, where Russian servicemen are currently
deployed.

The news agency has suggested that the
United States, the UK, France and Israel will carry out coordinated
airstrikes against Syria, paying particular attention to military
airbases in Homs, Damascus, Tartus, Hama, Deir ez-Zor, Raqqa and
Al-Hasakah. The allies will reportedly use land, sea and air missiles
to attack Syria

"The eradication
of the regime’s air defense systems would shift the balances," said
Molahafci, adding that such an offensive would strike a major blow
to Assad’s forces.

False Flag Chemical Attack in Douma

Washington is weighing a military
response after several media outlets reported, citing militants, that
the Syrian authorities had used chemical weapons against civilians
in the city of Douma in Eastern Ghouta, with the infamous White Helmets posting unverified pictures and videos
allegedly showing the aftermath of the chlorine gas attack. Mainstream
media immediately picked up the story, with some reporting that up to 70
people had died of “widespread suffocation.”

The United States immediately accused
Damascus of the attack, claiming that the Syrian government, who has a
“history” of using such weapons, was “not in dispute.” President Trump
held a phone conversation with his French counterpart, having “exchanged data”
allegedly confirming the weapons’ use in Douma, and then made another
call to Theresa May to discuss the issue. The three leaders have agreed to cooperate closely with international partners to hold the perpetrators accountable.

Meanwhile, Syrian officials have denied
the allegations, arguing that the chemical attack was staged
by terrorists, and the government did not need such measures to curb the
militants, as the armed forces had nearly liberated Douma.

Responding
to the typically unverified claims, the Russian Defense Ministry
stressed that the reports about the alleged use of weapons of mass
destruction by the Syrian forces were being spread by the White Helmets,
who have been repeatedly busted for fabricating stories and providing
fake footage. According to the ministry, no traces of chemical agents
had been found in the area where the alleged attack had taken place, and
the information was being used to undermine the ceasefire in Syria and
prevent the envisaged evacuation of militants from Douma.

“As the Defense
Ministry has already pointed out, the Russian military bases in Hmeymim
and Tartus are under firm protection. At the same time, we expect that
in the event of US strikes, if any, the lives of our servicemen will not
be in danger. I think that the United States understands this and will
not allow it, because otherwise Russia's response will be immediate,
as the chief of the Russian General Staff has said," Yevgeny
Serebrennikov, first deputy chairman of the Russian upper house’s
Defense Committee told Sputnik.

Meanwhile, the Russian Reconciliation
Center has spoken with doctors in the town, as well as the Syrian Red
Crescent, who reported that they had not received any patients
with signs of chemical poisoning.

UNSC Rejects Russian Resolution Supporting OPCW Mission in Douma

The 15-member United Nations Security Council has voted against
Russia’s draft resolution to launch a fact-finding mission by the
Organization for Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) in Syria; while
Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Bolivia and Ethiopia voted for, the US,
France, the UK and Poland voted against. Other members of the UNSC
abstained from voting.
